Warnings and precautions
Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the
voltage indicated on the identification label located at the back of
the set.
The TV set’s components are sensitive to heat.The maximum
ambient temperature should not exceed 35° Celsius.
Do not cover the vents at the back of the TV set. Leave sufficient
space around it to allow adequate ventilation.
Install the TV set away from any source of dust or heat (radiator,
etc.). Do not expose it to direct sunlight.
Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not exceed
85% humidity. If you have to use the TV set outdoors, do not
expose it to rain or splashing water.
Moving the set from a cold place to a warm one can cause
condensation on the screen (and on some inside components). Let
the condensation evaporate before switching the TV set on again.
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect the set
from the mains and aerial so that it is not affected by electrical or
electromagnetic surges that could damage it. For this reason, keep
the mains and aerial sockets accessible so they can be
disconnected if needed.
Unplug the set immediately if you notice it giving off a smell of
burning or smoke.You must never, under any circumstances, open
the set yourself, as you risk an electric shock in doing so.
If you intend to be away for a long period, switch the set off at the
on/off switch located on the rear panel.
Even when off, some components remain in contact with the mains
electricity supply.To completely isolate the set you must remove
the plug from the mains supply socket.
This product is fitted with a 3-pin grounded plug, which will only fit
into a grounded power outlet.This is a safety feature. Do not alter
the plug, as this would defeat the safety feature.
Avoid any intrusion of liquid or small metallic objects inside the
set. If such an incident were to occur, immediately disconnect the
TV set from the mains supply and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel.
Use the screen saver when using a computer.
Switch the TV set to standby mode when you do not use it.
The top of the TV set is usually very hot due to the high
temperature of exhaust air released through the ventilation
openings. Do not place your hands or face close to these openings
to avoid burns or personal injuries. Do not place any object close
to the ventilation openings to avoid any damage to the object or to
the TV set itself.
Make sure that all cables are disconnected before moving the TV
set, to avoid damaging the cables and thus cause fire or electric
shock danger.
